A piano audition with life-changing implications: Sara Houghteling’s reading from her novel in progress captivated the audience at Narrative Night 2017. Houghteling was awarded for the Narrative Prize for another music-inspired piece—“The Thomas Cantor,” about the genesis of Bach’s famous Goldberg Variations—and, in addition to her reading, she spoke about the international response to the story’s publication in Narrative.
